The Rose of Jericho

Let me share a little jewel with you that was given to me as a gift by my dear friend Cheri. Have you heard of the Rose of Jericho? This little plant has the remarkable ability to hibernate in a dried, curled up state until water is introduced. It drinks the water up and awakens into a beautiful green plant! It's the coolest! And when you remove the water, it slowly goes back into a dormant state. There are two different plants, one from the Northern Africa/Southeast Asia and the other from Southwest U.S./Central America! Go out and get one and see the magic unfold in front of your eyes! Thanks Cheri*
